Karina Canellakis | Camilla Nylund

Fri, Nov 27, 2020, 20:30
Philharmonie im Gasteig (München)
Karina Canellakis (Conductress), Camilla Nylund (Soprano), Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks
The concert opens with Serenade in E-flat major for 13 wind instruments (op. 7), composed by Richard Strauss at the age of 17. This journeyman piece already sparkles with the typical Straussian inflection. His Four Lieder of 1894 (op. 27), sung by Camilla Nylund, are gems of the late-romantic repertoire. Five years later Arnold Schoenberg wrote his string sextet Transfigured Night after a poem by Richard Dehmel. Poised between late romanticism and the burgeoning modern era, this gripping work was arranged for string orchestra in 1917, producing an even more sophisticated interplay of solo and ensemble passages.

Karina Canellakis conducts the Concertgebouw Orchestra: Wagner & Sibelius

Wed, Oct 16, 2024, 20:15
Het Concertgebouw, Main Hall (Amsterdam)
Concertgebouw Orchestra, Karina Canellakis (Conductor), Augustin Hadelich (Violin)
Richard Wagner championed the larger than life. In Tristan und Isolde, he aims his telescope at a young couple in love. Their passion is too great for this earthly world, resulting in extremely sensual music. The passion embodied by Sibelius’s only Violin Concerto is more restrained. It is not a typically virtuoso work, but rather a dream journey through a mysterious orchestral landscape. The refined and sensitive violinist Augustin Hadelich is our guide in this performance.Karina Canellakis has saved the rapturous climax for the very end. Le poème de l’extase is one of the most extraordinary works composed by the already exceptional Aleksandr Scriabin, for whom music served as ‘a bridge to the beyond’. This work explores a spiritual world that others can only dream of – but Scriabin places the listener right at the very centre of it all, with the orchestra producing a kaleidoscope of dazzling colour.

Hadelich / Piemontesi / Music of the masters from the banks of the Seine

Thu, Feb 6, 2025, 19:30
Narodowej Orkiestry Symfonicznej Polskiego Radia, Concert Hall (Katowice)
Augustin Hadelich (Violin), Francesco Piemontesi (Piano)
Stars up close! Today, Augustin Hadelich is a world-leading violinist who conquers the world's stages and performs with the best orchestras, including the NOSPR. He returns with a chamber programme, in duo with the versatile piano virtuoso Francesco Piemontesi. Their concert, which will be dominated by French music, is designed in a modern way. There is no shortage of the canon of violin music, represented by Franck's striking, emotional, late Romantic sonata and Debussy's subtle, intimate sonata. They are accompanied by a third, wonderfully melodic sonata by Francis Poulenc. Both predecessors will shine through, as Poulenc's sounds focus their qualities like a lens because our perception changes with the context. Old French music (by de Grigny and Rameau) will indicate the roots of the work of the masters from the Seine banks mentioned above. György Kurtág's handful of short musical gestures, meanwhile, will allow us to pause for a moment to take a fresh look at what we already know. Adam Suprynowicz Concert duration (intermission included): approximately 90 minutes

André Heller & The Best from Vienna

Sun, Mar 24, 2024, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Die Besten aus Wien, André Heller (Vocals), Ernst Molden (Guitar), Ernst Molden (Vocals), Der Nino aus Wien (Guitar), Der Nino aus Wien (Vocals), Voodoo Jürgens (Vocals), Voodoo Jürgens (Guitar), Anna Mabo (Vocals), Anna Mabo (Guitar), Tini Kainrath (Vocals), Ursula Strauss (Vocals), Marco Michael Wanda (Vocals), Peter Uhler (Violin), Nikolai Tunkowitsch (Violin), Walther Soyka (Accordion), Peter Havlicek (Guitar), Sibylle Kefer (Guitar), Sibylle Kefer (Vocals), Marlene Lacherstorfer (Double bass), Maria Petrova (Drums), u. a.
No false modesty: the »André Heller Reflektor« is brought to a close by the Best of Vienna, a title they thoroughly deserve, even if the Austrian capital is also home to heaps of other artists who are no less good than they are. The city boasts a music history going back centuries in a genre that no other city in the world can claim: Viennese song. Festival curator André Heller himself is of course one of the best from Vienna too, and will be taking to the concert stage for the first time in decades. His performance and the entire concert are available in the Elbphilharmonie Mediatheque: Go to video on demand Four years ago, some of these artists performed at the Elbphilharmonie’s »Ganz Wien« festival. Ernst Molden, who always mixes a little bit of Mississippi into the Danube waters with his guitar playing, has, with André Heller, recruited a group of musicians who all have one thing in common: with deep respect for tradition, they breathe new life into Viennese song, thereby keeping the genre vibrant and alive. The charismatic singer Voodoo Jürgens will be among them, as will Nino Mandl, who is better known as Der Nino aus Wien, the Dylan from the Danube city. The clever and sarcastic songwriter Anna Mabo, who plays some of her choruses on a kazoo, and the fabulous singers Tini Kainrath and Ursula Strauss will also be there. Instrumental variety is provided by the Neue Wiener Concert Schrammeln and the Frauenorchester, which actually consists of only three women playing guitar, bass and drums. The Best of Vienna are the best simply because they come from Vienna.

Kenny Garrett and Sounds from the Ancestors

Thu, Aug 22, 2024, 20:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
Kenny Garrett (Saxophon), Melvis Santa (Vocals), Keith Brown (Piano), Jeremiah Edwards (Bass), Mark Whitfield Jr (Drums), Rudy Bird (Percussion)
His tone is unmistakable, his playing irrepressible and full of originality: it is none other than Kenny Garrett, one of the most important and versatile saxophonists of his generation, who rose to global fame as a member of Miles Davis’ band in the 1980s. Garrett then developed his own musical identity as a bandleader with albums like »African Exchange Student« and »Black Hope«. Black music culture has always been the starting point for his musical language, and he pays tribute to this in his latest project »Sounds from the Ancestors«. The saxophone legend marks his Elbphilharmonie debut with this exciting programme. »Sounds from the Ancestors« reflects the rich jazz, R&B and gospel history of Garrett’s home city of Detroit. Yet the album also has a contemporary and cosmopolitan feel – brought about especially by the inclusion of music from France, Cuba, Nigeria and Guadeloupe. »The concept,« he says, »was originally about drawing on some of the musical sounds I remember from my childhood – sounds that lift up the spirit, from songs like John Coltrane’s ›A Love Supreme‹, Aretha Franklin’s ›Amazing Grace‹, and Marvin Gaye’s ›What’s Going On‹, as well as the spiritual side of church. When I started thinking about it, I realised it was the spirit of my ancestors. Recognising the origins of the sounds we have incorporated into the aesthetic of Western music is extremely important.«
